Application

EC Number Application Comment Organism
1.3.1.19 analysis Escherichia coli, which carry genes coding for benzene dioxygenase and benzene dihydrodiol dehydrogenase, can be used to monitor benzene pollution in environmental airsamples collected from an oil refinery. The procedures involving whole-cell bioassays determine the concentration of benzene through benzene dioxygenase activity, which allows for direct correlation of oxygen consumption, and through the benzene dihydrodiol dehydrogenase that causes catechol accumulation and restores NADH necessary for the activity of the first enzyme. The assay is sensitive enough to detect the benzene vapor at a concentration level of 0.01 mM in about 30 min. The assay is applicalble to on-line monitoring of benzene concentration, no particular treatment of environmental samples is required Pseudomonas putida
1.14.12.3 analysis the enzyme is used in a whole-cell assay as biosensor for benzene concentration and vapopur, overview Pseudomonas putida

Cloned(Commentary)

EC Number Cloned (Comment) Organism
1.14.12.3 expression in Escherichia coli strain DH5alpha and JM109, co-expression with benzene dihydrodiol dehydrogenase under the control of the Ptac promoter or without any induction. The recombinant strains expressing the BED and the BDDH enzymes transform benzene into dihydrodiol with corresponding consumption of oxygen and regenerate NADH by converting dihydrodiol to catechol Pseudomonas putida
